Lyrics

Under the Table

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I would beg to disagree

But begging disagrees with me

I would beg to disagree

But begging disagrees with me

I told you I didn't wanna go to this dinner

You know I don't go for those ones that you bother about

So when they say something that makes me start to simmer

That fancy wine won't put this fire out, oh

Kick me under the table all you want

I won't shut up, I won't shut up

Kick me under the table all you want

I won't shut up, I won't shut up

I'd like to buy you a pair of pillow-soled hiking boots

To help you with your climb

Or rather, to help the bodies that you step over along your route

So they won't hurt like mine

Kick me under the table all you want

I won't shut up, I won't shut up

Kick me under the table all you want

I won't shut up, I won't shut up

And if I don't wanna go, leave me alone

Don't push me, cookie, don't push me, don't you push me

If you get me to go and I open my mouth

To the fucking mutton that they're talking about

You can pout, but don't you, don't you

Don't you, don't you, don't you shush me

Kick me under the table all you want

I won't shut up, I won't shut up

Kick me under the table all you want

I won't shut up, I won't shut up

Kick me under the table all you want (I would beg to disagree)

I won't shut up, I won't shut up (but begging disagrees with me)

Kick me under the table all you want (I would beg to disagree)

I won't shut up, I won't shut up (but begging disagrees with me)

And if I don't wanna go, leave me alone

Don't push me, cookie, don't push me, don't you push me

If you get me to go and I open my mouth

To the fucking mutton that they're talking about

You can pout, but don't you, don't you

Don't you, don't you, don't you shush me

I would beg to disagree

But begging disagrees with me

I would beg to disagree

But begging disagrees with me

I would beg to disagree

But begging disagrees with me

Kick me under the table all you want

I won't shut up, I won't shut up

Kick me under the table all you want (I would beg to disagree)

I won't shut up, I won't shut up (I would beg to disagree)

Kick me under the table all you want (I would beg to disagree)

I won't shut up, I won't shut up (but begging disagrees with me)

Kick me under the table all you want (I would beg to disagree)

I won't shut up, I won't shut up (but begging disagrees with me)
